So damn fortunate to have my doctor—he’s gay, based at Spectrum Health in Van, incredibly kind, and never rushes. Finding a good doctor in BC is hard; finding a great one that understands you is even harder. I feel like I won the lotto. Feeling grateful.
There’s also a mom and two pups. Also a very old otter who is friendly and hangs out at their dock, eating the scraps on harvesting days each week.
My folks have a shellfish farm, and there is lots of otter friends live in the lagoon.
Visited my parents this weekend on a Gulf Island off the BC Coast. They live in a lagoon, and after the ferry, the quickest way to their off-grid home is by boat through the neck.
Few weeks back. Behind on posting.

Thursday was 🌧️
Great day to hang out with these two last weekend, with a stop at the newly opened local #SwayneCreekCiderhouse.

Post-workout — happy Hump Day, fellas! 🏋️♂️
Feeling good about the progress these past few months. Just been sticking to simple home workouts with some dumbbells, an exercise ball, and the floor 😀
Felt cute. Might delete later.
Was a great day to go explore #GoldstreamPark with @outinthewoodsvi.bsky.social! 🌦️🥾🌿

Slow start to the growing season, but temps are improving and plants are growing 🌱🌞
That’s the plan!
It was! 😀
Was a good day with the crew!
No pics of the two black bears I ran into on the hike, but how about a cub?

Yard update: The hostas are getting huge! 🤩 Somehow, I didn’t kill the Solomon’s seal 🌱 Between the critters, the heat, and barely enough water, I thought it was toast 🍞… but it pulled through! And the rhodos? Looking gorgeous this year 🌸
Closed the wrong Excel file. Poof, hours of work gone 🥲
Sure wish Microsoft 365 had a local AutoSave feature. Having that feature locked to OneDrive is scummy.
